    Looking to find out what these are off of. 20200915_190843 (2).jpg I was told the smaller piece was from a Studebaker and the larger pieces were from a Plymouth...but I trust the HAMB more than anyone else on parts ID.

  2. I think they are all from a mid century Idonno coupe

    Hood scoop jives with this Studebaker Hawk scoop on Ebay
    eBay item number:
    392415604768

    It will probably take someone who actually has a car those V pieces fits to know what they are off. I'd think that they fit the leading edge of the hood but not many post WWII cars had pointy hoods.

    I too believe the small piece goes on a Stude Hawk hood.

  5. I'm guessing they're late-30s / early-40s, not necessarily Plymouth. The mounting tabs being the same is interesting: If one goes under the chin of a pointy hood, where does the other one go?

    Are the two V pieces the same? Looks it.

  7. I think they're different sizes.

    They are the same size. Actually, there were 3 of them but one was broken off at one end. They might have come off of 3 different cars, not necessarily all off of one car.

    For the lower "V" shaped pieces, maybe Shark Nose Graham? Just a guess but they appear about that vintage.

    Just picked up some more parts today and while researching, found that these are 1937 Studebaker hood moldings.
     
  12. That seems right. What doesn't seem right is Studebaker naming a model "Dictator."
